IMPORTANT:READ TO END I recommend using mode 2. When you switch to mode 2, the drawing sprite will vanish. That is normal. It is intended for it to say "hmm..." before it plays it back. The goal of Pen Draw and Record v2.1 is to make pen rendering easy. Pen Draw and Record v2.1 can now render animations. The controls are basically the same as version 1.8, with some new improvements. M to change modes. In mode 1, you just use the arrow keys, and move steps variable number of steps. Use s to change the number of steps--or drag the slider. In mode 2, you use the mouse-pointer and hold down the left mouse button to draw. Release the mouse-pointer to move the pen up. In mode 3, you use the arrow keys to move, as well as the mouse. When you click the left mouse button, the drawing sprite will point towards the mouse-pointer and move steps number of steps until you release the mouse button. Controls in all modes: Z and x to change size. Q and e to change pen color. U to move the pen up. O to move the pen down. J and k to change pen shade. A to clear the screen. To help you draw frames for an animation, it will re-draw your previous frame in gray. This will not show up when you play it back. Press space when you are done drawing to record your drawing or animation. P to play it back. If you press the green flag again, then it will ask you if you want to delete your drawing. Answer yes or no. If you wish to save your drawing permanently, click "see inside," and exchange the draw block under the "when start clicked" hat for the either play back with or without screen refresh. With screen refresh, it will render it in real time. Without screen refresh is very fast and what you see when you play it back. If you wish to make your animation move down the x or y axis, then just put the playback block in a loop, and increment the (x) or (y) by however much you want to move. If you wish to draw at a different position, you can set the (x) or (y). Possibly coming soon: reverse drawing, pen ghost. Ideas are welcome.
I just realized that the last version was one big glitch. There should be no bugs in this version, but tell me about a bug if you find one. Time spent making ~ 60 hours If you like this project, please ask for it to be featured. Please love and favorite it. Please share your remixes and put "drawing" in the name so people can tell the difference. If you wish to use a drawing in your project, you may use it with credit by dragging the savebutton sprite into your backpack. If it is someone else's drawing, credit both them and me. Credit to Extreme Animating! for the idea of saving by remixing. Also, credit to theepdinker for debugging. Update log: v.2.1 made it a lot faster. Fixed the hundred-and-some bugs that plagued the last version, and added animation rendering. v.1.38 new modes added and a color circle that allows you to see what color you are using before you draw v1.23 fixed a bug and shared v1.2 fixed saving v1.1 added size; tried to add saving, and it crashed, so I unshared it v1.0 released
